HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

Hongmen headquarters!

Jiang Long, the leader of one of the four major Hongmen families, said:

"Mr. Lin, I know you are extremely powerful, but we in the Hongmen are not soft eggs that can be bullied by others!"

"Of course you can refuse, but before you do, you'd better think carefully about the consequences of your refusal."

But what he didn't know was that since Lin Yao dared to speak so frankly, he must have his own confidence.

In this gunpowder-filled Hongmen headquarters, a storm that concerns the fate of Hongmen is quietly brewing!

Situ Chu's face was gloomy, his eyes flashing with resentment and anger, and he said coldly to Lin Yao: "Lin Yao, you are too arrogant. Don't forget, this is not the place you just arrived. This is Country M. Please come in, I won't see you off!"

Lin Yao just shook his head slightly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, and said in a firm tone:

"Situ Chu, you are just sitting in a well and looking at the sky. You are too ignorant of the times and have been eliminated by the times! Goodbye!"

After saying this, he turned around and left with Situ Ning without hesitation.

After getting in the car, Situ Ning was full of doubts and couldn't help but said to Lin Yao:

"Mr. Lin, I can't understand why you came today? There is absolutely no need to see my brother."

"If my brother really has an assassin in ambush, it would be very dangerous!"

Lin Yao shook his head again and took a puff of his cigar.

Looking at Situ Ning, he explained:

"Aning, I'm here this time to undermine the willpower of the Hongmen.

"Look at the four major families. They are completely alienated from your brother."

"They don't know what preparations I have made, so they dare not act rashly."

After a pause, Lin Yao continued with a smile, "Even if your brother really has assassins lying in ambush, do you think I can't handle it?"

After hearing what Lin Yao said, Situ Ning couldn't help but smile.

Of course, she was full of confidence in Lin Yao's skills.

Based on her understanding of Lin Yao, not to mention Lin Yao's own powerful strength.

Given the close distance at the time, she alone could have quickly taken her brother hostage.

In that situation, even the most powerful killer in the world would be helpless.

What's more, it's no exaggeration to say that Lin Yao's skills are far superior to hers.

Even if the most elite special forces of Country M appeared on the scene, Lin Yao could easily handle it.

…

The next day, the darkness of midnight was like a huge curtain, weighing heavily on the land of Country M.

The Gulf Group and War Hall members launched a fierce attack on the Hongmen headquarters like a black tide.

The sharp sound of gunfire pierced the night sky, and the dazzling flames flickered in the darkness, instantly shrouding the originally peaceful Hongmen headquarters in flames of war.

Under the overall command of Situ Ning, the attack proceeded in an orderly manner.

She was calm and decisive, and she precisely deployed the forces of all parties, leaving the people at the Hongmen headquarters defenseless and completely defeated.

This attack was not carried out blindly, but was the result of careful planning and selection.

The four major Hongmen families were notified in advance that as long as they kept their troops in place and did not rescue Situ Chu, their families could be saved.

Anyone who dares to rescue Situ Chu will be killed together.

As expected!

Faced with this life-and-death decision, the four major Hongmen families all chose to stand idly by.

They watched helplessly as Situ Chu was gradually isolated in the storm and became a lone commander.

Situ Chu watched his bodyguards being shot in the head one by one in the hail of bullets and dying helplessly, his eyes full of fear and anger.

In the end, he was so scared that he took his bodyguard captain and part-time housekeeper Ashu and hid in the underground secret room of the Hongmen headquarters.

The secret room was dimly lit and filled with a damp and stale smell, as if it was an abyss of despair.

"Mr. Situ, what should we do next?"

In the secret room, Ashu asked with a fearful look on his face.

His voice trembled slightly, and it was particularly clear in this silent room, revealing his inner fear.

"You go next door and observe the situation first, let me think about it!" Situ Chu said irritably.

At this moment, his mind was in a state of confusion and he urgently needed to sort out his thoughts and find a solution on his own.

"Yes, Mr. Situ!"

Hearing Situ Chu's words, Ashu hurried away, walking quickly, as if he wanted to escape from this suffocating atmosphere.

Situ Chu looked at the messy secret room, the anger in his heart was like a burning flame, he said coldly:

"Lin Yao, you actually deployed such a powerful force in Country M!"

Situ Chu gritted his teeth, hatred squeezing out from between his teeth.

"But I, Situ Chu, am no pushover. Just wait and see who will have the last laugh."

Situ Chu clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with determination, and vowed to concentrate his strength to fight Lin Yao to the death.

Unfortunately, how could Lin Yao fulfill Situ Chu’s wish?

Lin Yao came here just to deal with Situ Chu.

They had planned carefully from the beginning, pressing forward step by step, and had already taken into account all of Situ Chu's reactions.

By the next day, Situ Chu fell into the abyss of despair.

Because the Qing Gang, the Hongmen’s arch-enemy in Country M, also joined the team to fight against the Hongmen.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, completely shattering Situ Chu's only remaining hope.

The joining of the Qing Gang made Situ Chu attacked from all sides, and the situation became even more precarious.

At this moment, he was trapped in this small secret room, like a bird in a cage, unable to fly away!

They could only watch helplessly as the Hongmen crumbled in the storm, unable to do anything.

…

The next day, the bustling city of San Francisco seemed calm, but to Situ Chu, it seemed to be shrouded in a huge haze.

In one of his secret villas, the atmosphere was as tense as if it was about to hit a storm.

"Mr. Situ, something bad has happened. The tax department of Country M has sent you a flyer."

The bodyguard captain and butler Ashu looked panicked and hurriedly handed a flyer to Situ Chu.

In Country M, the tax issue has always been a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of many forces, and its severity is even far greater than drug trafficking.

In the eyes of the world, there are three terrible things: first, trafficking drugs in Dragon Country is courting death;

Second, if you evade taxes in Country M, the consequences will be disastrous if you are caught;

Third, fighting drug trafficking in Mexico is extremely dangerous.

So, when Situ Chu heard that the tax bureau came to his door, he was really shocked.

As the chief leader of the Hongmen, Situ Chu owns many properties.

After all, the Hongmen has taken root in Country M for more than a hundred years, and after a long period of development, its industries have spread across various fields.

However, the tax situation of these industries is complicated during their operation and cannot withstand close scrutiny.

"What tax problem is there? Where's Lawyer Maxwell?"

Situ Chu asked anxiously.

Maxwell is one of the top ten lawyers in the United States and is very famous.

Over the years, it was thanks to Maxwell's professional ability and extensive network of contacts that the Hongmen had been able to maintain peace with tax issues.

Even if there are occasional minor problems, Maxwell can always solve them in advance.

As a senior barrister, he is good at making advance deployments, and is adept at communicating with the tax department and accurately grasping various tax policies.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He has extensive connections in the legal community and is always able to turn danger into safety at critical moments.

"There is a serious discrepancy between our association's income and the tax return figures, and the tax bureau has obtained solid evidence."

"Also, Attorney Maxwell cannot be contacted."

Ashu said worriedly, "I called all the numbers I could to contact him, but no one answered. I have no idea where he is."

Situ Chu frowned and fell into deep thought.

Maxwell's loss of contact cast a shadow over his heart, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

In this critical moment, he must come up with a solution as soon as possible.

"How about this, Ashu, let's find another lawyer named Moore." Situ Chu said after thinking for a moment.

Attorney Moore is also his personal lawyer. Although he may not be as famous and well-resourced as Maxwell, at this moment we can only hope that he can turn the tide in this tax crisis.

"Mr. Situ, it's too late. The tax bureau has already obtained the real evidence. They are now looking for you everywhere. You may have been arrested before you find a lawyer. Be prepared for this!"

Ashu's voice was full of anxiety and helplessness.

"Fuck! Damn it!" Situ Chu couldn't help but swear, anger and fear intertwined in his heart.

He knew very well that in M ​​Country, a society ruled by law, the means of tax audits were extremely perverted, and once caught, there was almost no chance of escape.

However, at this moment he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the tax bureau to accept investigation.

Although he was filled with reluctance and worry, Situ Chu still managed to remain calm and instructed Ah Shu:

"Ashu, contact Maxwell and Moore immediately. Do everything you can to find them and have them form a luxurious legal team."

"No matter how much it costs, you must bail me out."

In Country M, money and connections can sometimes work miracles. As long as the money is in place, even a death row prisoner with irrefutable evidence may be rescued by a great lawyer with his superb legal skills and deep connections.

Just like the Simpson case that caused a sensation back then.

Situ Chu hoped that he could escape this disaster with the help of a strong legal team, just like Simpson.

But what he never expected was that this time his fate would be completely different from Simpson's.

What awaits him is an abyss of no return.

He is not Simpson and does not have that kind of luck and background.

The tax bureau seems determined to bring him down this time, and Maxwell, whom he relies on, has mysteriously lost contact. All this makes his situation precarious.

When Situ Chu went to the tax bureau with a nervous mood, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.

But when he stepped into the cold door of the tax bureau, he saw the serious and cold eyes of the tax officials.

And when he saw the mountain of evidence before him, he truly realized how hopeless his situation was.

Ashu was anxiously trying to contact Maxwell and Moore in the villa.

The phone kept ringing in the empty room, but no one answered.

Every busy tone seemed to announce that Situ Chu’s hope was being shattered bit by bit.

The night fell like a heavy black cloth, tightly covering the detention room of the tax bureau.

Situ Chu curled up alone in this small, cold space. The walls around him seemed to be constantly squeezing inward, making it difficult for him to breathe.

At this moment, his inner defenses completely collapsed and he fell into endless despair.

Maxwell and Moore actually refused to defend him. Even though he offered a sky-high fee, these two famous lawyers remained unmoved.

Tax collector Bill stood in front of him with a cold expression on his face, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his words:

"Mr. Situ Chu, no one will help you. You probably know the specific reasons yourself!"

Bill's words made him realize that he was in a desperate situation with no one to help him.

"Well, Mr. Tax Collector, I need to speak to my housekeeper."

Situ Chu's voice was full of fatigue and helplessness.

"Yes, Mr. Situ Chu, our laws are humane." Bill said lightly.

Afterwards, Situ Chu dialed the number of Ashu, the captain of the Situ family bodyguards, with trembling hands.

The moment the call was connected, he seemed to have grasped the last straw and shouted anxiously:

"Ashu, please hire the best lawyer for me. I will get out even if I lose everything!"

There was a pleading tone in Situ Chu's voice that he had never heard before.

He knew very well that his fate now depended entirely on whether he could find a capable lawyer.

"Okay, Mr. Situ, I'll do my best!" Ashu responded respectfully, with a hint of firmness in his voice.

Half a day later, Ashu finally called back.

"Mr. Situ, I have hired a famous lawyer in Washington DC, but he asked for 100 million before he agreed to accept the offer." Ashu said cautiously on the other end of the phone.

"One hundred million is one hundred million, let him come right away." Situ Chu gritted his teeth and said without hesitation.

At this moment, he no longer cared about the amount of money. As long as he could get rid of the current predicament, he was willing to pay any price.

"Mr. Situ, all of our Situ family's accounts have been frozen by the tax bureau. As for cash, there is only 10 million in the secret room, which is far from enough."

Ashu said helplessly, his tone full of anxiety and helplessness.

Situ Chu's eyes widened immediately and he shouted, "No way? How is that possible! Where did the 100 million cash in the secret room go?"

"I still have gold! It's worth 60 million! Ah Shu, you..."

However, before he could finish his words, Situ Ning's icy voice suddenly came from the phone:

"Situ Chu, don't worry about the cash and gold in your home. Get ready to spend the rest of your life in jail."

He was very familiar with this voice, it was the voice of his sister Situ Ning.

Situ Ning's words instantly shattered Situ Chu's last hope.

Situ Chu held the phone, stunned, his mind blank.

He could never have imagined that his sister, who was once connected to him by blood, would abandon him so heartlessly at this critical moment.

Just seven days later, Situ Chu was sentenced to 120 years in prison for tax evasion by the M country court. (End of this chapter)
